IST'ing to California NG

February 23rd, 2010, 11:27 PM

I'm a 19D with Washington State IST'ing to California.

I've left messages with some units in the area I'm moving to, and have not received any calls back.

I'm now thinking I'd rather find the unit I'd prefer to be with instead of what's local/convenient. Hoping there are 11 series or 19D's around these forums that can suggest the right unit(s) and hopefully POC's.

I'd really like to find an Airborne unit that'll pick me up. If that's not feasible then I'd prefer a dismount CAV troop or Infantry company that'll take me. (Maybe 1-18th CAV RSTA?)

I've also heard there are some units that will send me to BAC if I extend my contract. That'd be outstanding.

Other notes: If I had to get MOS-Q'd as an 11B that'd be fine. Upcoming scheduled deployments are fine too.

I dont always get it right, there is one out there, that I am sitting back, with my popcorn, and waiting for the excuses to roll in. But this kid might work, and if it doesnt, atleast he tried, and trying is the first step in the path to success.

Any 19th guys around, shoot me a PM, I have a question for you.

No excuses. Sent a few messages to 19th Group'ers that were inquiring about recruiting in Cali on the QP forums. Standing fast for business hours to make further contact.
